Almond Buttercrunch

[Guest guest]

Almond Buttercrunch Candy

(similar to Skor Bar but with nuts)

 

Ingredients

 

1 cup slivered and blanched almonds

1/2 cup ghee, vegetable ghee or coconut butter

1/2 cup sugar

1 tablespoon light corn syrup

 

Method

 

Line bottom and sides of 8 by 9 inch cake pan with foil. Oil heavily.

Combine almonds, butter, sugar and corn syrup in 10 inch skillet. Bring to a

boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until mixture turns a golden

brown; about 5 to 6 minutes. (If you use coconut butter which has a colour in it

yours maybe a slightly different colour)

 

Quickly spread candy in prepared pan. Cool until firm. Remove candy from

pan by lifting edges of foil. Break into pieces if desired

 

Yield: about 3/4 of a pound

Is there something else that could be used in place of the ghee?

 

Thanks,

Weren't there three alternatives, ghee, vegetable ghee (which is derived from

canola oil) and coconut butter?

 

Anything but margarine will probably work, solid fats wise.

Ghee itself is clarified butter. Vegetable ghee is made from canola oil which

is why I use it instead.
